The objectives of this study were to develop a cheese-like
product enriched with soy protein concentrate and to determine
the effect of the incorporation of vegetable proteins in the matrix of
a spread product with respect to physico-chemical and viscoelastic
behavior, texture, microstructure, sensory and preservation during
storage.
The shelf life of the products was studied with and without the
use of sorbate as preservative and through pH, acidity, sensorial and
microbiological assessments during storage.
